About This Demo

The dead are restless.

You're the gravekeeper, and tonight every grave in the yard is stirring. Zombies, skeletons, vampires and ghosts claw their way out of the ground in waves, and all that stands between them and the gate is you, your lantern and twelve rounds. Clear a wave, spend your score at the armory, then face the next one.

This is the free demo: play it alone, on St. Gloom's, from wave 1 to wave 25. Clear wave 25 and the demo is done. The full game keeps going.

What's in the demo

  • One place to hold: St. Gloom's, the moonlit churchyard. Press PLAY and the first wave is already rising.
  • Waves that keep coming: zombies from the first wave, skeletons from wave 3, vampires from wave 5 and ghosts from wave 7. Every fifth wave brings a horde.
  • Elite nights: on wave 10 and wave 20, elite undead rise with the horde, and after each one the dead come back stronger.
  • Two guns: you start with the Pistol. You can buy the Scattergun at the armory between waves.
  • The armory: upgrade a gun's damage, fire rate, magazine and reload, up to five levels, plus pierce for the Pistol. The top levels open as you level up.
  • Your gravekeeper levels up: every run earns XP, and your level and XP are kept the next time you start the demo.
  • Power-ups, jumping and a gamepad: red hearts heal you, and rapid fire and spread shot drop from the dead. Play with mouse and keyboard or a gamepad, in English or Danish.

What's only in the full game

  • Co-op for up to four, over Steam.
  • Three maps, St. Gloom's, the torchlit Catacombs beneath its church, and the Coffin Works, a coffin factory whose night shift never clocked out.
  • Game Rules: pick the map, set where the armory opens, how long the breaks last, whether you carry one bought gun or all of them, and whether your guns and upgrades survive death.
  • Two more guns, the Repeater and the Hunting Rifle. The demo shows them in the armory, locked.
  • Achievements, stats and Steam friends' best runs. The demo has none.
  • No wave 25 cap. The full game keeps sending waves for as long as you last.

Your demo progress stays in the demo: your level, XP and upgrades do not carry over to the full game.
